Dear Lorrie
While last Saturday night is still fresh in your mind we feel that we should thank you again for entertaining us at Cheddleton and particularly on the dining coach on Saturday evening. In our 20 years of being involved with the CVR we have never known a meal on the train quite like it and we feel that it was largely due to you (helped by your husband of course).
We got the impression that you enjoyed it too especially as I think you said you had never performed on a train before.
We wish you many more years of doing what you obviously enjoy doing. Surely it is doing that that is keeping you looking so young!
Hopefully we can look forward to seeing you again next year, meanwhile our very best wishes to you both.

A Salute to Vera Lynn act were superb. The evening was a huge success and these pair added a great deal to the occasion. It always helps when you deal with genuine people and these are not only genuine but thoroughly nice people to deal with. They stayed way over the time agreed due to timings slipping, with no complaints they entertained and got the crowd going. I would thoroughly recommend these to anyone and will have them in the back of my mind for next year at a different venue.
Please pass on my thanks to them they were a huge success.

How do you follow a super loud Led Zep act? With a tribute to wartime troops, sweetheart Vera Lynn, of course. After a patriotic introduction from a helmet-wearing ARP, the audience having been handed Union Jack flags on the way in after the interval, the scene was set for Lorrie Brown to get all nostalgic with renditions of White Cliffs of Dover, then We’ll Meet Again. In truth, most audience members would only have a vague memory of what Vera Lynn actually looked like during WWII and this is a speciality tribute with characterisations rather than an accent on absolute accuracy. But, it works well enough to make you feel like digging for victory and breaking out some powdered egg, and it was privilege to be asked by the Agents Association to present this award to Brown and her team.

Absolutely perfect for our event. A very
professional show with the minimum of fuss and very friendly artiste. I
would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. If it's 1940s you want,
these are the people.

‘A Salute to Vera Lynn, was wonderfully conceived and presented it was a pleasure to watch.
Their participation in singing Dame Vera Lynn’s most memorable songs with flag waving of the Union Jack...extremely moving and memorable.
